Title: In Xanadu did Kubai Khan
Post by: JMM on May 15, 2004, 09:42:15 pm
In Xanadu did Kublai Khan, a stately pleasure dome decree, where alph the sacred river ran, to caverns measureless to man, down to a sunless sea.

For you Storm...

Samuel Taylor Cooleridge.  They say that was written whence he was on a heroin type drug...can't recall the name off the top of my head.

Cooleridge wrote my favorite of poems however,

Ryme of the Ancient Mariner...

If it's good opium you will not only forget your last month but remember past lives...and see all kinds of good stuff...course it was a major habit forming drug...One of the worst if I recall correctly.

The love of a Mexicana is habit forming too.

He was on an opium high when he wrote it--until he was interupted by a salesman.  No matter what he tried he couldn't get the images back.  That's why the poem is incomplete.

Any opiates are the nastiest of the bunch.  Just ask anyone ever given a prescription of Oxycoton and then taken off of the drug.  

I've known a few, and their lives aren't happy as they try to recover.
